These are the things I did to have my 1st blowout year in business

Don't read this if you are a guy. You won't get it.

She said to me, she was worried about 2025.

What if it doesn’t feel as great as 2024 did? It was one of the best years she had in over a decade.

“Can that happen twice? Surely not in a row.”

My client’s lament out loud made this think of a quote from Marianne Williamson:

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?'

Actually, who are you not to be? ….

Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

I remember the first big year I had in business.

I had alot of fear I needed to let go of.

I hired a coach who had the most unconventional approach to business.

Gabrielle’s required reading was an eye brow raiser. Once I got past the title, I understood the mission:

This book is written to reacquaint a woman with her own power source - which is the part of herself she has been taught to ignore, push down, and despise.

“See, we live in a culture that teaches us to turn off. To play small. To take care of everyone else first. To keep a lid on our dreams and a cork in our truth.”—Regena Thomashauer

If I had to go back and seek out clues the led to my success and replicate it, I would do as Matt Gray does.

Gray has an 8-figure business as a coach and content creator. He preaches “record your process.”

Record the playbook as if you had to hand it off to someone else to replicate.

So I pulled out my playbook from my 1st blowout year in business and dusted it off for this article:
